The invention relates to an improvement in gas ranges especially those of a typehaving an insulated bake Oven 21ml Warming. r

' '.v ing chamber with an outletf9 above chamber located above the oven. y ,Y n

Heretofore when thebake oven wasunln-- sulated heat radiating from the-top fof the bake oven was sufficient tol'adequatelyfheat the warming oven located, above it., With the top wall of the'bake oven insulated there is so little heat radiation ytha-tfnot only .is the warming chamber inadequatelyheated` but a serious question. harSiSQn ,1515: .torliolf it might be heated without material Change' y Y n through the radiator may readily radiate..`

in thel general structure` ofthe rangel l5 to provide an arrangement by which theI warming chamber maybe heatedwhen the, bake oven is insulated. and without material change in the general structure of the range. 29 As will later be seen Y the object is; ac,-

complished by an arrangement for ,takingA advantage of or utilizing hot gases*` which heretofore have been. allowed t0 .escape and have gone to waste.

- The invention can range, such portion onlybeing shownfras is necessary to a proper underst 39 invention, and 1n which- Figure 1 is a sect-lon of the range on Y 4 l v3 Y .Y y tionthereofgaround' whichthe radiator thel line 2 -2 .of

It is tov this chamber the purpose of the invention is to supply heat.

In the usualmanner of heating the bake oven, air heated by the burner 3 will pass from the burner chamber 2 through the bake oven 1 and thence will escape through an outlet 6 in the insulated back wall of the oven into a flue 7 connecting with the chimyAccordingto the present arrangement heat (meaning heated air or gases) esca-ping from the bake oven and directed into the The object of theinvention is accordingly.

4Aradiator 10 is located atthe back of the warming chamber with inside projection for,.- wardfrom vthe rear wall of; this Ichamber and. .lying adjacent the -lue 7 Aeidzendi-nfg alonguthe backv outside the chamber. radiatorv 10v ofboxlike character built 'of metal plates from `which heat from the heated lair for. gases introduced to pass .It consists of two spacedlside plates. 11 and'12, respectively,.connected at the front, by'aplate 13. All these radiator plates4 make. closed fconnection with the top and bottom walls 14 and 15, respectively, of the; warming chamber, .While the spaced side plates 11. and 12make closed connection with,

bui1t;on"t heinsideandby which the Hue 7 is dir eet ed 'y to pass onthe outside. 4.The inlet opening `17. opens into the bottom: vof

. the, radiatorfchamber andthe outlet l'18 is fromfthe.v top of thisy chamber. Ata point lying' approximately vbetween the two openings the -lue 7 is provided with'a partition 19.-,by ,which'hot airor gases withinthe vflue will be directed to pass through the' open` ing 17 into the chamber of the radiator from order that the' heat from these burners may be availed of for heating the warming chamber, a stove top 21 is provided above the burners; and a bottom plate 22 below the burners,` both stove top and bottom lates cooperating with the surrounding wa 1s of the stove structure to form a burner chamber 23 within which heat or heated air from c Huel` tov pass through the radiator'lO in the i, heating this chamber. $l

the burners may7 be confined and thereby made available for heating Athe warming cha`111`ber-`V .It will be understoodV that the cooking is carried on from the burners 20,'

20 through ,openings 24 in the stove top which are closed for anyburner notin use byalid25.

For the purpose of directing heat from the."Y burner chamber 23" tothe Vwarming (shammi-,openings 26.are Vformed inthe rear wa1l"27 of this chamber. These openings` open ,into a; Hue 28 which extends Alateral by the rea'rofA the range and connects'wit the lHue 7 the heat then rising through thls warming chamber the same as before.`

Itjwill therefore be seen that when the ran e is in o ration, whatever burners are use heat will'he "directed to pam throu h the radiator in the warming chamber or .Having thus Afully describedV my inven-4 tion, I claim and desire to secure byoLetters Patentof the United States f 1.
